Has anyone discussed these with, idk, Mark or Evan or anyone? Given them a packet? Made a wiki page saying Designers Look Here Please (and below pages and pages of Please Make Botbots Again there's finally a section about "don't use these, use THESE")?

I dearly hope that's not how it unfolds for all of them. A Commander class PMOP and a Leader Apex Bomber would be fine, and be friendly to a store or convention exclusive Fire Guts and/or Nucleon Quest redeco. But I fear that yup, a whole God Ginrai set would definitely "fit" the HasLab format...

There's a Commander class that needs to happen. The lips budget alone demands it.

Music collabs are in right now, I hear. Is your favorite act on here?

I think I'll get this Tailgate as well, despite the weirdness of the head. They probably wouldn't bother with a Retro (not a lot of difference), and even if they did, the animation model head is so based on the toy's tiny-head-set-in-block that they would probably just reuse this one. What I...

That's what I'm assuming, as the van mold seems a decent enough fit and there's already a provision for a cassette/8-track. Some cosmetic retooling and a new head, and a new cassette, would be a good way to reuse that mold. Then again, idk if they tend to reuse Collaborative molds across...

Ha, yes, I also managed to get a couple of the figure/micron packs just before the pandemic at one of their "now slightly LESS overpriced!!!" sales. Again, a dubiously intentional side effect of them ending up the only place to find things years later because they typically priced them like...

What the hell kind of fandom experience is that, even. It's not even just reductive, it's shallow. The Bay movies are about the military. Kiss Players is about sex. Cyberworld is about vidya gaems. "About" used to mean something.

Lol I figured as much. It makes sense that this didn't ring a bell as I haven't been in there in years, largely because of pricewanking like that and to a lesser extent that period where they tried to implement a bag check because SURELY everyone wanted to steal their precious unsellable merch...

I'm fine with the direction they went with Swerve, and am surprised by how much i rather like the overall proportions. I just wonder if a wide block head like Gears' might have been the way to go. Certainly a bit less cumbersome to turn. But I guess that's not the route the show model went, and...

That's reserved for Kup Classic.

I figure there'll be a different, perhaps slightly better (perhaps slightly less good) name, and New Prime is as much an indicative placeholder as Unicron Soldier turned out to be. Probably even "Herald of Primus" then. Given that, idk what I want it to be right now. But the idea of Onyx Prime...

Somewhat incongruous waist and thighs aside, I still kind of prefer this to the ROTB design or even its onscreen model (although the odd bedroom slippers are not great). I like the proportions of the toy overall (less taper to the torso, especially with the sides and back visually filling in...

My dude, what exactly are you contributing to the conversation at this point Wait until it's revealed that Grimlock has a to-scale laminated Romeo and Juliet card from a deleted scene that explains just why Optimus was so unnecessarily hostile to him.

All's I want is that Arkham Knight game design for Batman Beyond. Never seen that unique take, in these scales. But with that being in such a niche they've already done AND revisited I think, and with all these Batman possibilities, it's definitely possible we're going to be Batman-obsessed...

I am curious about this, if only because I still want the Autorooper and I am loath to consider buying it from outside the country and potentially having to explain to sketchy customs people inventing things to tax me over why there's a blushing, bothered, young-looking female character hiding...

Funny enough, Age of Extinction also has a concerningly icky bit and the movie has been citationally reduced to being represented almost entirely BY that dumb idea. But, y'know, when you script and shoot and keep a whole-ass sequence about flexing a(n inaccurate understanding of, iirc) the Romeo...

That's fair, but I think the point is it's still a sizeable step away from Transformers Kiss Kiss Perv Perv. This has been very useful over the last few years. But just in my head.

Some of it's the very present day social media thing of never having an unexpressed thought, and some of it's just the social pressure to visibly put yourself on the right/accepted side of things. There's no middle ground and silence is uncritically viewed as siding with the oppressor because...
